"He is not altogether indifferent yet," she said to herself.

"Of course, you know that Mr.Lancaster is a good deal older than Alice ?" Yes, Keith had heard so.
"But a charming man, and immensely rich." "Yes." Keith began to look grim.
"Aren't you going to see here ?" inquired Mrs.Wentworth, finding that Keith was not prepared to say any more on the subject.
Keith said he should like to do so very much.

"She is married now, and must be so taken up with her new duties that I fear she would hardly remember me," he added, with a laugh.

"I don't think I ever made much impression on her." "Alice Yorke is not one to forget her friends.

Why, she spoke of you with real friendship," she said, smiling, thinking to herself, Alice likes him, and he is still in love with her.
